Camera apparatuses, systems and methods are provided having particular
application with marine propulsion mechanisms. In one aspect, a camera
apparatus can include a housing that can have an external airfoil
configuration. The camera apparatus can be mounted on a marine propulsion
mechanism, such as a marine outboard engine, and can be used to see
images of and monitor the engine. A water intake on the outboard engine
can be particularly viewed and monitored, even during operation of the
engine with a boat at high speeds.
